MY SAY: DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THE GREAT LAKES HURRICANE OF 1913?

The Climateers who would blame the flu on global warming if they could, never mention this one….a major disaster in November 1913….because climate catastrophes happen from time immemorial…and are not caused by man made climate change….

The Great Lakes Storm of 1913, historically referred to as the “Big Blow”, the “Freshwater Fury”, or the “White Hurricane”, was a blizzard with hurricane force winds of 90 miles an hour from November 7-November 1913. It battered the Great Lakes and Ontario, overturned 19 ships and left many others stranded. The waves were 35 feet high and killed more than 250 people.

November gales plagued the Great Lakes region with 25 major storms since 1847 which destroyed homes and cargo ships. The last big one was in 1996.
